The god of war turned his seat around and handed me a copy of the paperwork. When I took the information, I found that it was full of magic photos, a whole stack, at least a thousand or so. When the god saw me and started looking at the picture, he began to explain, "This thing appeared shortly after you left, and it's actually more than that." ”

"You mean there's another Red Planet like this?"

"The other one is not red but black, and it only appears at night. The two planets, red and black, are completely opposites, one appearing during the day and the other at night. As for the Sun and the Moon, the Moon is visible and streaks across the surface of the Black Planet every night, while the Sun is blocked by the Red Planet every day, completely invisible. ”

Rose said: "So the Red Planet is between the Sun and us, and the Black Planet is farther away than the Moon, right?" ”

"That's pretty much it! As you know, we don't have astronomical equipment here, so we can only make a rough judgment. In addition, the unknown creatures that Zi Sun saw were called the Ghoul Clan, which was a completely independent race. ”

"Independent races?"

"The members got information from the system NPCs that these were creatures from another world, and my logic program couldn't understand the definition, so I thought it was an alien and named them Red Star creatures because they were from that red celestial body."

Rose smiled and said: "It's okay if you want to understand it this way, the other world must also be an alien planet, and it's right to call it aliens." ”

The god of war pressed a few times on the console, and the large screen in front of him suddenly flashed, and then a three-dimensional projection of a large row of creatures appeared. And the projection is still rotating, so that you can see their full body features. "As you can see, this is the confirmed species of Red Star creatures, a total of three hundred and seventy-three. Whether there are other species is unknown at this time, but it is certain that this is by no means the entire race on the Red Star. ”

"So many? There are only about 20 kinds of flying colonies I saw! "It occurred to me that I should let the pets know about the situation, so I released them along with the Bell Knight. Frost and Snow were also shocked when they saw these creatures.

The god explained, "The ones you see are enclave species. Not all of the Red Star creatures can fly, and most of them are still terrestrial races. Speaking of flying creatures that have come to our planet, there are many more species. Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the flying units in the Red Star Creatures is not strong, but the number is particularly large. ”

I nodded with feeling. "I've experienced this. It's scary to just see them flying over from the sky. ”

The god of war immediately said, "Actually, you don't have to worry about this. We've had a few conflicts with these things, and I don't know if it's because we didn't run into high-level creatures or because of something else, but they're all weak anyway. Although they look very scary, their combat power and appearance are completely disproportionate, basically only equivalent to the level of a level 500 player. Of course, I'm talking about regular players. It's not like you. When you're level 500, you already have someone else's level 700 combat power! ”

"Five hundred?" I thought for a moment and said, "Now most players are above level 600, which means that the combat effectiveness of these things is very low, right?" ”

"Yes, but so far we've never found a single Red Star creature in action. At least once I encountered before, there were nearly 10,000 units together, and most of the time they were collective activities of more than 100,000 groups. Although their single combat effectiveness is very low, but in groups of more than 100,000, players cannot attack at all. As long as they find a living thing, whether it's a player, an NPC, or a wild animal. All of them will fight immediately, and it is usually our side that is unlucky, after all, it is rare for a hundred thousand people to be concentrated on our side except in regular wars. ”

"It's a very dangerous creature." Ling asked, "Do you know how these creatures came here?" Even if their planet is nearby. I've got to find a way to get here! ”

"They seem to have come through something like a spatial rift. This thing appears in a very irregular location, always jumping intermittently, and each time it is opened, it lasts for three to five hours, and there are footprints of these guys almost all over the world. ”

"Good fellow, the Great Invasion of the Otherworld!"

Rose asked, "So do these things have intelligence?" ”

"Yes, and it's not low." The god of war operated on the console again, and some strange objects appeared in the holographic projection area in front of the screen. This time, the projected object was a huge machine, and although there was no similar thing to be found on Earth, it could still be seen that it was some kind of machinery. Or rather, semi-biological machinery. It has a distinctly metallic structure, but in some places it is covered in red muscular tubes and a large number of carapace-like structures. It's a half-biological, half-mechanical thing, so to speak.

The god of war introduced: "This thing was brought by one of the Red Star creatures, but unfortunately it was broken, and we couldn't grab it. Its function seems to be to emit a special force field within which magic is completely impossible. ”

"Can this thing create the Forbidden Demon Realm?"

"It's not just forbidden demons, we've found several similar machines, one of which is a forbidden device, which prohibits any flying objects from taking off, and another is a forbidden light device, which becomes dark once activated. And these big guys don't seem to be afraid of the dark. ”

Rose said: "These monsters have such a large pair of eyes, and it is normal for them to have dark vision. ”

The military god said: "Although these machines have been discovered, it is obvious that not all of the Red Star creatures are very smart. Machines can only show that the other party's internal existence is a highly intelligent individual, not that all of them are very smart. Of the three hundred and seventy-three types that have been discovered so far, three hundred and fifty-seven are low-level intelligent creatures with intelligence only at the level of Warcraft, and thirteen of the remaining sixteen have reached the level of orcs, and only three can reach the intelligence level of humans and dragons. ”

"That's not too bad."

The god continued: "Aside from their different appearances, I think that the Red Star creatures are actually similar to the creatures of the Earth, and there is also an absolutely powerful race among them, just like humans. Take the dominant position. Other races may be slightly more numerous, but in general the dominant race is stronger. In addition, we found that the Red Star creatures were extremely brutal and could barely communicate. To our table xiàn is like looking at food, and the possibility of negotiation is infinitely close to zero. ”

I nodded, "So is there something on the other planet?" ”

The god of war nodded: "We will temporarily name the black planet that appeared in the night as the Shadow Planet, and it appeared together with the red planet. There are also alien races on the Shadow Planet, but their characteristics are completely opposite to those found on the Red Planet. ”

"Exactly the opposite?"

"Yes, quite the opposite." The god of war was operating, and the projection platform was divided into two, one side showing red star creatures, and the other side was showing many new species, and the two sides just formed a contrast. The god of war introduced: "You see the earth now, and these are the creatures of the shadow planet on the right. In contrast, it is easy to distinguish them morphologically. ”

The god of war is right. Although there are all kinds of creatures on the shadow planet, the common feature is that the whole body is covered with a layer of black. Wrapped in a substance like smoke, you can't see the actual image at all, only a rough outline. However, the eyes of the creatures of the shadow planets are prominent. Their glowing red eyes were the only thing they could see clearly under the black fog. The appearance of the red star creature is ugly and intimidating, but the shadow creature has a suffocating sense of oppression, as if a hand is holding its neck.

"See what?" The god of war asked.

I nodded: "Very strong." A sense of oppression that borders on suffocation and a terrifying mental pressure. ”

"And that's not all." The god of war pointed to the shadow creature in front of him: "First of all, pay attention to the contact point between the projection and the ground, you will find that the shadow creature is actually not touching the ground. Although this is only a projection. But what my system is supposed to show is a 100% simulated map, and that's what real shadow creatures are. They don't touch the ground at all, they're completely floating forward. ”

Ling Dao: "It's very much like a ghost." ”

"You're right." The god of war slapped the keyboard. The red star creature on the left vanishes, and an enlarged ghost appears in place, leaving only one of the other half of the shadow creatures, and is magnified and hovering next to the ghost, with arrowed lines connecting the various parts of the ghost and the shadow creature. The god of war explained: "You are now seeing a comparison of two creatures, at first glance it seems that they are both similar, but if you look at yourself, you will see that these creatures are different from ghosts, they have no energy structure. They seem to be shadows of nothingness, but in fact there is a substantial part of them inside. It's not really an individual nothing. Players who have been in contact with shadow creatures during this time have also reported that their weapons will be blocked when they pass through the smoke on the surface, meaning that the shadow is an entity inside. Moreover, according to the members' descriptions, the entities inside the shadows are not as simple as normal musculature, as their weapons have the feeling of slashing into steel, not at all. ”

"That means this kind of thing has a high physical defense, right?" Yeyue asked.

Scott also asked, "Isn't it as physically invincible as a tank or steel fang?" ”

"That's not it." "There have been players who have killed shadow creatures, but at the time they paid a great price. Shadow creatures are far less numerous than Red Star creatures, and they usually appear in solitary groups, occasionally in clusters, but rarely more than ten single organisms are active at the same time. However, although their numbers are very small, their combat effectiveness can fully compensate for this shortcoming. Of all the battles with shadow creatures that have been discovered so far, the worst ones are at least 900 or higher. And its average should be above 1,800, which means that a team of players with less than 20 players will definitely have no chance of winning against these guys. ”

"So strong? Isn't that more dangerous than a Red Star creature? ”

"If they had the same thoughts as the Red Star creatures, it would be dangerous, but thankfully it wasn't. The shadow creatures don't seem to be very brutal, and all the combat cases found so far have been provoked by the player, and there is no record of the shadow creatures actively attacking. In addition, after observation, we have determined that these shadow creatures have a higher level of intelligence than the Red Star creatures, and this is almost universal intelligence, and we have not found any shadow creatures with an intelligence level lower than that of orcs, and most of them have intelligence beyond that of humans. ”

"So they can communicate?" I'm more concerned about this. If the two sides really fight, it is to do subtraction. In the end, no matter who wins, the remaining strength is definitely not as good as before. But if you can negotiate, if you can't do addition, at least you will be stronger than before. Therefore, for this kind of powerful group, I have always saluted first and then soldiers, and it is best to win over, and only consider using force to solve the problem if it is really impossible.

I was bitter by the god of war's answer, saying, "In terms of intelligence, shadow creatures can't be speechless. However, since most of them act alone, there is no communication between zài individuals. Even when they showed up in groups, they remained silent with each other. If it's not that their way of communicating isn't expressed in voice, it's that they don't have language at all, or they don't bother to speak. ”

"The likelihood of not having language is roughly negligible." Rose said: "They have wisdom, they have social forms, and it is impossible for them to be without language. The only possibility is that they are not communicating with their voices. Spirits can communicate with spirits, and these guys might have a similar function. ”

"You mean telepathy?" The military god said: "This is very likely, but there is no way to confirm it yet." Also, if you really want to communicate with them, it's best to hope they don't use telepathy. ”

"Why?"

"Because you can't be telepathic. If they do communicate in this way, then you have no hope at all. ”

"Who says I can't be telepathic?" I looked at the god of war and said, "I'm a beast trainer, and my professional skills are completed by commanding demon pets in battle." Without telepathy, am I going to command the battle with a horn on the battlefield? ”
